π cleanup_classid_environment(9) π
okay so bestie, welcome to the Kernel API Manual β this is the cleanup_classid_environment(9) page and honestly it's a whole vibe of its own. it's short, it's sweet, and it does exactly one thing. let's get into it β¨
πΈ NAME πΈ
cleanup_classid_environment β cleans up the cgroupv1 net_cls environment. that's it. that's the gig. she's a one-job queen π
π SYNOPSIS π
void cleanup_classid_environment (void );
literally no arguments, no return value, no drama. immaculate energy honestly π«Ά
π¦ ARGUMENTS π¦
voidβ no arguments whatsoever. none. zero. the void of it all β¨
π DESCRIPTION π
so at call time β like, the moment you invoke her β she moves the calling process to the root cgroup, and then runs the deletion process. order matters, bestie, she does not skip steps π
and if it fails? π she'll print an error to stderr and then try to continue. not me showing up to the function call with the "we ball" mindset β she's not gonna bail on you, she's gonna keep going. iconic resilience, no cap π₯
heads up: on failure you will get that error message on stderr, but she still attempts to carry on rather than stopping dead. just so you know what you're getting into π
